Groups clash on Oregon bus; boy stabbed

PORTLAND – Springfield police are looking for a suspect accused of stabbing a boy following a dispute on a bus.

Lewis says the groups clashed again, resulting in the victim getting stabbed. He was treated at the scene and then taken by ambulance to the hospital, where he remains Wednesday.

The suspect is believed to be in his late teens or early 20s.
